and_o to_o we_o our_o author_n do_v not_o doubt_n but_o the_o same_o may_v be_v prefix_v to_o all_o determination_n in_o point_n of_o faith_n resolve_v on_o by_o any_o general_a council_n lawful_o

be_v to_o extend_v as_o far_o as_o the_o promise_n but_o shall_v assistance_n imply_v infallibility_n then_o there_o must_v be_v good_a store_n as_o long_o as_o the_o promise_v of_o divine_a grace_n hold_v good_a but_o this_o assistance_n of_o council_n be_v very_o different_a from_o the_o assistance_n of_o grace_n for_o the_o church_n may_v subsist_v without_o council_n but_o can_v without_o

in_o the_o truth_n of_o its_o doctrine_n or_o its_o authority_n why_o shall_v not_o he_o believe_v the_o same_o of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v build_v on_o better_a promise_n what_o

that_o be_v all_o that_o be_v good_a among_o they_o for_o their_o teacher_n have_v corrupt_v themselves_o and_o the_o people_n and_o make_v the_o law_n of_o no_o effect_n among_o they_o if_o there_o be_v infallibility_n any_o where_o it_o must_v be_v in_o the_o high_a priest_n and_o sanhedrim_n but_o be_v it_o possible_a for_o any_o christian_n to_o think_v they_o infallible_a when_o they_o be_v so_o gross_o mistake_v about_o the_o main_a article_n of_o their_o faith_n as_o to_o the_o messiah_n and_o pronounce_v he_o worthy_a of_o death_n be_v not_o this_o a_o fine_a argument_n for_o the_o

and_o the_o pain_n eternal_a due_n to_o it_o be_v proper_a only_o to_o christ_n our_o saviour_n yet_o that_o penitent_a sinner_n be_v redeem_v by_o christ_n and_o make_v his_o member_n may_v in_o

the_o total_a remission_n of_o sin_n in_o baptism_n they_o suppose_v a_o temporal_a punishment_n to_o remain_v when_o the_o eternal_a be_v forgive_v which_o the_o penitent_a be_v to_o satisfy_v god_n
